Accepting ADL Award, Murdoch Decries 'Ongoing War Against Jews'
Media magnate accuses Leftists of spurring anti-Semitism under the guise of legitimate criticism of Israel.

By Natasha Mozgovaya and Haaretz Service

Media mogul K. Robert Murdoch on Thursday decried the "ongoing war against the Jews" and demanded an end to efforts to isolate Israel.

Accepting an award from the Anti-Defamation League for his support of Israel, Murdoch described the phenomenon of delegitimizing Israel as a "soft war" which he said has now entered a "new phase."

“This is the soft war that seeks to isolate Israel by delegitimizing it," Murdoch told attendees at the New York dinner where he was bestowed the ADL International Leadership Award. "The battle ground is everywhere – the media, multinational organizations, NGOs. In this war, the aim is to make Israel a pariah.”

Murdoch told participants at the dinner that signs were abounding of rising anti-Semitism, particularly from elements on the Left under the guise of legitimate criticism of Israel.

5. With his declining health, I would have thought he'd be less of a scumbag.
Prolly thinks he's going to get a great gig in Hell.
